Morning everyone! Just a note to all existing clients that unfortunately some prices are going up from October 1st. This is due to the rising hay, bedding and feed costs due to the summer weather that we enjoyed! I think i have messaged everyone who the increase affects. I appreciate you all and totally understand if we need to adjust session frequency due to this price raise.

Thanks so much for enjoying the horses with me!

Talking to your kid about their diagnosis isn't just important, it's also a way to help them feel more in control. It gives them the language to understand themselves and tools to support themselves:

💬 Language to describe their experiences without shame or defaulting to character-based labels.
💛 A foundation to support self-compassion
📢 A framework for self-advocacy
💞 New opportunities for belonging and connection
✨ Basic respect for who they are

Talking openly about a diagnosis is about giving kids the knowledge, language, and confidence to understand themselves and navigate the world with more support and clarity.

To learn more about this you can read our full article guest written by Dr. Donna Henderson: https://neurodivergentinsights.com/do-i-tell-my-child-about-their-diagnosis/

Oly regularly suffers from rainbowitits, not always on his feet, usually his tail and mane!

Not the first one I've seen this year but good example of a case of rainbowitis. Only found during the summer months, although not contagious children can be carriers. Typical of most skin conditions it only affects the white leg but can also be found elsewhere on greys. Ponies are more likely to be affected as larger horses seem to have more immunity. It can be very simply treated with just one application of soap and water or alternatively wait until it rains 🌧 🤔 🙄 🌈 🦄 🤣
